After passing Ragged Point and the town of Gorda, turn right onto Willow Creek Road at the Treebones sign, then take an immediate right through the gate and follow the road uphill to the resort.

Arriving from the North

Take Highway 1 south from Monterey and continue about 65 miles. Turn left onto Willow Creek Road, then take an immediate right through the gate and follow the road uphill to the resort. If you pass Gorda or the Whale Watcher Cafe, you have gone about a mile too far and should turn around.
